Oracle VM Manager: Includes a Restricted-use License for Oracle Database?
I'm evaluating OVM and OL for building a small private cloud and - at this stage of the evaluation - am primarily focused on making sure that I understand the licensing requirements of Oracle virtualization.
The Oracle® VM Installation and Upgrade Guide for Release 3.1.1 states that...
Oracle VM Manager includes a restricted-use license of the
Oracle Database (Standard Edition or Enterprise Edition) for use as
the Oracle VM Manager Management Repository only. The supported
version of Oracle Database are...
Am I understanding this correctly? Does this mean that, for the purposes of implementing Oracle VM Manager, it will not be necessary to purchase a license for Oracle Database (11g) Standard Edition?

Is oracle lite free or is there any license for Oracle Lite 10g for product
Is oracle lite free or is there any license for Oracle Lite 10g for production use ??
-Thanks-Please note that Oracle Lite is no longer being actively developed, and no further releases are planned. The recommended small footprint database from Oracle is Berkeley DB.

Separate License for Oracle Wallet Manager
Hi,
From our application we have been making webservice calls using utl_http. In the past this has been via http but we now have a requirement to make a webservice call using https. This requires the use of Oracle Wallet Manager. Is a separate License required to be purchased to use the Oracle Wallet, or is it part of the Oracle database license? We have an internal check going on now with various people, but I just thought I'd ask the question here as well.
Database version: Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64biOracle Wallets can be deployed on clients, middle tiers, and database servers FREE of charge. However, the following features that use an Oracle Wallet in turn require licensing of the Oracle Advanced Security Option:
- PKI credentials
- Transparent Data Encryption.
Please check following MOS for more details.
Is There Any Additional License Required For Wallet Manager? (Doc ID 1068223.1) -

Partition license for oracle 9i
Dear all,
we are having oracle 9i database (9.2.0.4) on hp-ux platform. The database is being used for DWH purpose, so table partitioning feature is used.
We have cpu based Oracle enterprise edition license for this database. Please suggest if we need to procure any license for partitioning feature too or the same license will work for Oracle 9i database?
As nowhere i found anything about partitioning license for oracle 9i database, though for oracle10g it is written in documentation that partitioning feature is optional package and we need to procure additional license for it.
Thanks in advance...for license Information you should contact oracle local office in your country , Also note that 9i is unsupported now .

Export import - using TOAD FOR ORACLE and ORACLE DATABASE 10G EXPRESS or s
Hi all,
Could you please kindly help me?
I am using TOAD FOR ORACLE to export a table to flat file A. The tool just supports to distinguish fields by "spaces".
And the web page of ORACLE DATABASE 10G EXPRESS to import the data from flat file A to another database. To load data to a table from a text file, the web page bases on "comma" to distinguish fields.
So could you have any suggestion for me? I need to export data via TOAD FOR ORACLE. And then import it to another database by the home page of ORACLE DATABASE 10G EXPRESS or sqlplus.
Thank you so much for your help!Dont use TOAD for exporting your data. Use PL/SQL. Below is the code given in Asktom.com that does what you want.

How to add additional disks on vmware OEL4 and use it for Oracle 10gR2?
I created a virtual machine on vmware workstation 6 and installed OEL4.
during first install I created 20 GB disk but now I want to add more disks.
from vmware documentation I tried to add more 8 gb disk to the virtual host.
under devices I see two lines;
Hard Disk (SCSI 0:0) 20.0 GB
Hard Disk (SCSI 0:2) 8.0 GB
but I must be missing some step since I can not see 20 + 8 gb at df;
[root@antuhost ~]# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 13G 9.7G 2.3G 82% /

Because it is better to use ADF for oracle SOA/BPM
because it is better to use ADF for oracle SOA/BPM?
TKY for your answers
yango901Generally it is if you're comparing identical compressors & resolutions but there's something else happening here. If you're worried about quality degrading; check the original file details on the camera (or card) either with Get Info or by opening in QuickTime and showing info. You should find the iPhoto version (reveal in a Finder) is a straight copy. You can't really increase image quality of a movie (barring a few tricks) by increasing file size but Apple editing products create a more "scrub-able" intermediate file which is quite large.
Good luck and happy editing. -
Can I use DMU for this database?
Hi everyone,
I am snippeting a CSSCAN ( i know..) so that will reveal the amount of convertible data we have to tackle and wanted everyone's opinion if we can use DMU for this database.

I think it should be fine.
Please let me know.
thanksHello,
the amount of convertible has no relation to if you can use dmu or not.
of course, the less convertible, the less time the conversion process itself will take, but that's about it

Oracle VM Manager 3.0.1 Use existing RAC DB
Hi,
I'm trying to get 3.0.1 installed but wondering how to get an existing RAC DB as the repository DB for VM Manager.
The installer is asking for SID but not for SERVICE_NAME.
Has anyone already made this work ?
Thank YouWell, I tried but get :
09-30 10:00 system.process DEBUG system.process.run stderr:
ORA-01017: Benutzername/Kennwort ungültig; Anmeldung abgelehnt
09-30 10:00 ovm.installer.prerequisites ERROR The database could not be reached using the provided connection info.
ORA-01017: Benutzername/Kennwort ungültig; Anmeldung abgelehnt
The installer does not connect to the Repository DB at all
I checked with another post in the forum and checked
- SELinux is disabled ( EL 5.6 )
- ping works
- tnsping works
- password does not contain special chars
- sqlplus connect over SqlNet works
- RepoDB is 11.2.0.2 ( SEC_CASE_SENSITIVE_LOGON=false )
I don't know what to check in addition. -
New free Runtime license for Oracle xe, and more features
This comment is related to the other post, but is different.
Why oracle don't have a free runtime license like Ms Access.
Maybe having more restrictions, allowing several instance at a time.
Having more features to make easier to install for small programs.
Thinking to write an small application I ask my self why an Oracle dba, can't use Oracle as the end database, and I have to use Ms Access.
Maybe the size of the database could be reduced, and not include apex, I think could even block database procedures, but to enable an option, please.
I ask to Oracle, to please think a solution to replace msaccess runtime, etc., making easier the install, desintall, etc. for very very very small databases.
Thanks.Hello,
though I'm not an Oracle representative, I have an opinion on your request I want to share with you.
Oracle Database has some features which by design won't allow easy embedding. Disabling those features isn't really easy and you wouldn't look at just some features less but at a software that behaves differently in wide areas. What would be the advantage to use it?
I don't think you have to use MS Access, though. There are small embeddable databases available, even from Oracle (Oracle Berkeley DB to name one). So why should Oracle re-invent the wheel by downgrading a full-featured database that long that it is embeddable when other projects started to support this by design already?

Getting backup using "backint for Oracle" to work
Hi
We are trying to get the backups to work on MaxDB 7.6 using the backint for Oracle interface.
I have created an environment/config file and set the variable NSR_ENV. The contents of this file is as follows:

NSR_USEOUTPUT SAVE
I have created a backup media with the following options:
Backup Type: Full Backup
Device Type: PIPE
Backup Tool: NSR
Device File: c:\temp\file.pipe0
When I run this, I get the following error:

About the Oracle License for Oracle Dataguard
hi,
I have purchased Oracle 10gR2 EE for my primary setup.
And i need to install Oracle 10g R2 Dataguard (Physical Standby), So wheather i need to purchase a serparate license for the same.
I have heard that in Oracle 11gR2 Active data guard that License in required?
with regards
A.AravindFrom the Software Investment Guide - see last sentence
Standby – In this method, one or more copies of a primary database are
maintained on a standby server(s). The sites in a standby configuration may be
dispersed geographically and are connected by Oracle Net Services. As the
primary database is modified, log information generated by the changes are
sent to the standby database(s) and subsequently applied to the standby
database. If the primary database fails, a standby database can be activated to
be the new primary database. Solutions like Oracle Data Guard (included with
Oracle Database EE) or customer-generated scripts can be used. In this
environment, both the primary and the standby databases must be fully
licensed. Additionally, the same metric must be used to license both
databases. -

Personal support license for Oracle.
I am a developer for a company that spends over one million dollars a year on Oracle licenses. I have ordered the free DVD's for Oracle Linux and I am planning to install it on My personal computer at home. I am then going to install 32bit Oracle 11 for Linux so that I can evaluate the new database. I wanted to purchase a Linux support license for my one home computer so that I would have access to web support and Linux patches. This computer is owned by me, not the company. When I attempted to go into oracle store, I was unable to purchase the $99.99 support license until I registered. Unfortunately, you must supply a company name and address to register in oracle store to purchase the Linux support license. I do not want to put the support contract under my company, it is MY computer. Since I could not find any way to register as an individual, I called the toll free number to ask the sales department. I was explaining my problem and as soon as I said a personal license for one installation of Oracle Linux, the sales person hung up on me. They did not say anything, just hung up. I am upset and do not feel that this behavior is acceptable if oracle is going to be selling Linux support.
Now the question. Does anyone know how to register for Linux support as an individual?Beilstwh,
Many customers have purchased a Network support for personal use. If you purchase via the online store, you can use your own name as the company name.
